David Lammy: Insulate Britain protests 'totally, totally unacceptable'

It comes as Insulate Britain protesters blocked junction 3 of the M25 this morning, demanding the government take action to insulate all of Britain's social housing to tackle the climate crisis.

Nick asked: "How would a labour administration address this?"

Mr Lammy replied: "The police have got to have powers to deal with these issues.

"Endangering lives, creating a situation in which an ambulance travelling with a patient can't get to the hospital, someone ended up with paralysis as a result of these actions, I'm afraid is totally, totally unacceptable.

"We have to support the police as the high court have, in doing their work, and a Labour government has to be clear about that."

Mr Lammy was referring to a devastated caller who told LBC his mother had been left partially paralysed from a stroke, after being delayed six hours in traffic by the climate protesters.
